Just point it and go! Alaska, Mexico, or Moab this Land Cruiser is ready to take you there and get you back in style and comfort. This Cruiser was built in the mid 90s by none other than Alan Podvin. One of the first 80's he'd ever done, and well before any of the current vendors or products were available. The lift was accomplished with custom drop brackets and incredible attention to detail. The truck drives straight and tracks perfectly.
Condition – See pics for areas mentioned.
This land cruiser has been used for it's designed intention over the years. There are a number of little nicks and scratches, on the body. Most of which can be covered by rhino lining the fender flare area, but I never got to that project. The previous owner managed to dent the drivers fender good, but it is functional as it is. I have a replacement fender and will include it with the purchase. There is a half dollar size ding in the rear DS quarter panel, and some scratches on the rear tail gate from the P.O. sliding something heavy on a roof rack.
The leather has seen better days. The drivers seat has a tear and a split. The stiching has also come loose on the seat area, but could be repaired. All other seats are intact, but in need of conditioning. 3rd Row seat is in great contition as it wasn't used much.
Doesn't burn but a quart of oil maybe every 5k miles. And if you park it for a few days you may get a drip or two from the same spot.
Known Issues -
Drivers door lock doesn't auto lock/unlock with the other doors, but still works.
D-light in gauge cluster is out.
Easily over 30k invested, nothing but the best in parts and expert fabrication were used in the build up of this Land Cruiser. Heavy-duty protection on all 4 sides. Front and rear factory locking differentials with center diff lock button. Built and designed for off-road travel with no disappointments.
I bought the vehicle back in 03 and have loved owning it, but my lifestyle has changed and I now have a heavy commute. It honestly pains me to part with it, and I've been dragging it out for over a year now, but it's the right decision for the situation.
Will talk trades for slightly built/stock 98+ Land Cruiser/Lexus LX470 or 4 door 4x4 Tacoma.
If you have a question or if I missed any information, please ask. I'm sure I'll think of more things and I'll post up as I think of them.
